Cool color, but it could hurt you in voting. Without a bright red sunset, it doesn't really look like fire, so you have to think about the context. I found the composition more compelling when I cropped in much closer so you only see the more interesting parts of the scene.
This is a good picture, but I bet your getting crused vote wise. I don't see any fire, but I'm sure folks pointed that out long time ago. I leave this at the high side of the middle of the road.
Although this is technically fire, I think it misses the point. That being said this is a great picture. I wonder what this looks like in it's original version.
Color and highlights do a lot for this. A little too much dark on the left hand side. I think you could have cropped this a little tighter, but that might have been intentional. Color is great on this.
I like this a lot. The colors you chose appeal to me. I think you could have cropped some off the left hand side. My eye is drawn to the dark area because it seems so dominant. Good luck. 8
just enough roundness to let me know this is the sun. I like the composition and the backlighting and the waning light on the clouds. But the tone you chose...I not really a fan of that. Different.
This could have been very spectacular if not for the monotone purplishness. I'm not sure if this was done purposefully or not, but I would have liked to have seen more color and contrast.
Although I'm guessing you'll get slammed because there isn't actually any fire in this, I liked the idea and thought about it myself. I like the shot, but there seems to be too little going on on the top and the left. Perhaps a crop of the lower right part would have helped a little more
